MIAMI LAKES, Fla., Oct. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- J.I. Kislak Mortgage LLC (Kislak Mortgage) announced today the expansion of its presence in the state with the opening of its newest consumer mortgage origination loan office in Jacksonville, Fla. Kislak Mortgage expects to originate approximately $8 million in loans from this location each month.
"A cornerstone of Kislak Mortgage's growth strategy is to open bricks-and-mortar store locations throughout Florida to provide local service to our customers. Jacksonville is an important market for us as we continue to provide Floridians with top-notch service to enable them secure loans in a timely, efficient manner," said Tom Meyer, Chief Executive Officer of Kislak Mortgage.
To spearhead the efforts of the Jacksonville office, Kislak Mortgage hired John Reagan who has more than 17 years of experience in the mortgage industry.

"We are confident that our storefront locations will not only provide potential home buyers with access to mortgages, but will also create jobs for licensed mortgage consultants."
The Jacksonville office expects to hire between 8-10 mortgage loan consultants within the next six months.
